Wins for Netherlands and Costa Rica saw another two quarter-final berths booked in Brazil while one of Manchester United's new signings jetted off on their summer holidays

Day 18 of the World Cup was yet another thriller as late drama encapsulated both last-16 ties, with Netherlands and Costa Rica eventually winning through to the last eight.

The Oranje's win over Mexico was marred somewhat by a possible dive by Arjen Robben which led to Klaas-Jan Huntelaar's winning penalty, though the player himself has denied simulation.

Meanwhile, new Manchester United signing Luke Shaw has begun spending after putting pen to paper on a £160,000-per-week deal at Old Trafford as he jetted of to Marbella following England's World Cup elimination.
